TUESDAY EVENING, SEPTEMBER 13, 1932. Ogden High School Notes ASSEMBLY The first assembly of the year was called to order Friday morn­ing by President Dale Anderson. I'he student body joined heartily in the singing of "America," led by Mr. Hansen. Miss Granville an­nounced the selling of membership I by the Ogden Community Concert association and urged students to attend the splendid musical produc­tions to be given this winter. Dave Wangsgaard gave the juniors fair warning in the name of the Forum committee. Very good musical num­bers were presented by Ross Lynch, soloist, a mixed quartet, Miss Doug­las, Mrs. Tyree, Mr. Cragun, Mr. Hansen, accompanied by Mrs. Froerer, and by Phyllis Ablanalp, pian­ist. The feature of the program was a slpendid talk on the evils of liquor and consideration of the eighteenth amendment by Miss Lillie Grace Matheson of the Woman's Christian Temperance Union, j Supt. Hopkins favored us with his presence but refused to deliver his "excellent" speech (prepared, etc.), but did welcome us and wished us a successful year. Vice Principal Irwin also greeted us with a few I cheery words. TRAFFIC We have just a few traffic regu­lations that the Juniors should know. All trr.fflc in main hall keeps to right, no U-turns allowed. When ascending to the second floor use stairs nearest the wall and when descending use stairs nearest wall. In other words in going either up or down, enter the stairway nearest/,! the wall and you'll never meet any- [ one providing all are observing this I simple traffic rule, j Which reminds us of the old say­ing, "While traveling up the golden stairs may you never meet a friend." : G IRLS' ASSOCIATION With such a pefpy group of girls at Ogden High, this year promises to be a very successful and happy one for the Girls' association. Almost all the girls, at present, are deeply Interested In whom they j arc to have for a little or big sis­ter. Big Sister week will be from September 12 to September 16 and during this time all senior girls have charge of one or more juniors. In this way the junior girls are able to become better acquainted and more satisfied. This week is closed on Friday with a general gathering of girls in our gymnasium. Each club is expected at this party to put on an act, and prizes will be j given for the best. Prizes are also to be awarded for the cleverest and the most original costumes. Another undertaking different from previous years is that during the Big Sister week all girls will be encouraged and expected to wear sack aprons. This is in accord with .one of the largest projects to be taken up by the Girls' association. "Simplicity of Dress," during the school year. Major Dyer Speaks To Cadets of School Reserve Officers Training Corps Starts Work of Year (Ogden High School News) The R. O. T. C. began organiza­tion Monday morning under the di- ection of Major Dyer, newly ap- inted commander. Tentative ap- ;intments have been made and ..13 new officers already show prom- ..se of developing Into another effi­cient staff. Major Dyer spoke brief­ly to the large group of cadets, and everyone was very favorably im­pressed with his attitude and lead­ership. We look for the major to make a fine record at Ogden High and as­sure him that the best wishes of the students are with him. PARKE PETTERSON, Editor. HIGH POST OPEN Come cn, some of you high-step-; ping lads! The drum major office is open. There is always room for the best. Perhaps it may be you; are you interested? Mr. Hansen is fully prepared for the best and most successful musi­cal year ever known at Ogden High school. He has many new ideas for the betterment of the band, which he learned from attending a sum­mer course in band instruction un­der A. R. McAllister, who directs the world's foremost high school band. These new ideas are going to be received by a group of about 50 enthusiastic musicians who are able and willing to put the band over in a top-notch fashion. We solicit the support of you, the student body. Be a booster of the band. Here's to the. best year yet. DON BANKS. CLOCKS PLAYFUL Time is a slow-moving affair around here. In fact, it's been standing still for some months. If we started for school and dismissed at the time our positively accurate clocks detail, it'd be a merry season for all of us. Classes at two o'clock, come at two o'clock, let out at two o'clock-or is it ten? But that's only a sad delusion for us poor lit­tle innocents. Shall I tell you the secret? Will you believe it? Those clocks are stopped! NOSEY. A THOUGHT Thought for today: You can not j dream yourself into a character; you must hammer and forge yourself into one.-Jeremy Taylor. GLEANINGS Football! Almost it speaks for it­self-but not quite. Brings to mind flashy roadsters, scarfs flying, crisp : weather, and competition. A long j green field and determined faces loom up. Oh, it's a great sport all right and O. H. S. is getting right in trim. More power to ya, team! Oh, and another thing. The gym and Room 304 are in the possession of new teachers. We are very sorry to have lost our good old standbys but the present ones are showing themselves to be of the same mettle. A hearty welcome is extended-and please keep things pleasant for them always-in other words: Let 'em down easy. There's quite a flurry among club members, too - costumes, pledges, pins, colors and all the rest of it. It is hard to agree unanimously, isn't it? We're beginning to feel the un­accustomed weight of assignments. Seems the only thing to do is to pull in your belt, groan, sigh, and then-settle down. Oh, well! It won't be long now. As is apparent the mental agility1 of the writer is rapidly decreasing, due to hurry, hunger, and other natural causes. The noon ho is all too short. M. J. W. WEDNESDAY EVENING, SEPTEMBER 14, 1932. Ogden High School Starts Large Chorus Singing Will Be Done With­out Usual Musical Accompaniment OGDEN HIGH SCHOOL NOTES Parke Petterson, Editor At O. H. S., one of the most in­teresting classes is in progress. It is the "a cappella" chorus, or "sing­ing without accompaniment." Ogden High is among the first in the state to begin such an enter­prise, and, as we want our school to be up to the minute in all sub­jects, we must show the many other schools engaged in such work that we cannot be beaten. Mr. Hansen urged all those who are interested in this chorus and who have the seventh period open to register as soon as possible so that the class can begin to study as a j complete group. In order to make jthis chorus a success, it should con- ! sist of at least fifty members. More are desired if possible. Those who have already enrolled have shown interest and enthusiasm so it promises to be one of the most outstanding of activities at Ogden High this year.-Mary Louise Mc­Kay. FOOTBALL We were out watching the foot­ball team last night, and they looked so dirty and tired that we didn't have the courage to be the least bit sarcastic or mean. Practice is held behind the school every night until about six-thirty. There are about fifty men in uni­forms, half of whom are second- year men, and they are divided into three groups. The first and largest group are candidates for line posi­tions, and they are charging back and forth across the field, looking very disgusted. The second group is composed of the backfield men, who are practicing trick plays. The third group consists of the new comers, who are running and toughening themselves up. These last men look more disgusted than any of the rest. The coach announces scrimmage will be held out in back sometime this week. A schedule is to be drawn up in the near future. A practice game will probably be played with Davis before the official schedule opens. The date for this game was not announced. IMPRESSIVE SPEECH Whoever thought high school stu­dents would be interested in politi­cal questions of the day? Well, per­haps it was the speaker or the in­teresting way in which he presented his subject, but everyone, from the oldest and most dignified senior to the shyest, most insignificant junior, was so impressed with the splendid talk by Congressman Colton on Tuesday that order actually prevail- ed throughout the assembly. Mr. Colton spoke on the soldier bonus controversy in Washington, on the I disarmament problem, and other important topics of politics and ec­onomics. Thanks, Mr. Colton. Your talk gave us not only information j but also inspiration for greater I things in the future. O. K.-TAU ETA NU We're here again! We have been quiet during the summer months but from now on our bells will be­gin to peal (maybe our sunburn, too) and you will hear a lot more from us during the year. We in­tend to make ourselves a big club from a big time school. We hope to help to make this year one of the most successful school vears. both in a studious and social line, of dear old O. H. S. Here's to a bigger and better year for all of us. (That means every­body.)-Min and Yoosh. ON INTELLIGENCE Here is an intelligence test for high school students: If you cannot answer any of these questions you are dumb. If you can answer all you have superior intelligence. If you can answer two of them you are fairly intelligent. What is a sheep after it is six years old? What is a cannibal who has eaten his own father and mother? What kind of umbrella does King George carry in a rainstorm? STUDENT BODY FEES For many years past the social ac­tivities of high school have been very successfully carried on through the payment of small fees which give students membership in the school organization. Three dollars entitles a student to attend all school games conducted by the school in both football and basketball, to attend opera and school play, a subscription to the school quarterly and usually one or two dancing parties. The five-dol­lar fee entitles one to all the above and, in addition, to the yearbook. In the past the funds have been ample to carry on these activities. We hope that despite the depression enough students will be able to pur­chase memberships this year as will give us the same high standard of activities that we have enjoyed in the past. .
